Our first impressions

1. Using JIRA Portfolio to gain visibility on existing JIRA projects:

• 4 hours to setup and import real JIRA data in

• Themes report showed us alignment of JIRA projects to strategic goals

• The new visibility lead to discussions and plan changes

• Epics usage proved to be more difficult (if not standardized across projects)

2. Using JIRA Portfolio to assess feasibility of a new project:

• 1 hour to setup the tasks and a team (no stages)

• We were able to asses feasibility of a new project-to-be having the load of our team on current projects
